Bennett Powers Pacific to a Pair of Conference Sweeps

Pacific junior Sidney Bennett (Louisville, KY/Assumption HS) was selected Big West Women's Volleyball Player of the Week after pumping in 30 kills across the Tigers' six-game streak for wins over Long Beach State and Irvine.

The 6-2 middle blocker averaged five kills, 0.33 aces and 1.83 blocks a game in the two Big West matches, finishing at .451 hitting (30-7-51) on the week.

Against previously undefeated Long Beach State on Thursday, Bennett put away a career-high 18 kills and added six blocks to help the Tigers snap a six-match losing streak to the 49ers. Two nights later against Irvine, Bennett hit .476 (12-2-21) and notched five blocks for another Pacific sweep last week, which locked the Tigers at 3-1 in conference play with Long Beach State and Cal State Northridge.
